What's New

This Reference Manual documents Intel® Math Kernel Library (Intel® MKL) 10.3 Update 1 release.

The following function domains were updated in Intel MKL 10.3 with new functions or enhancements to the existing functionality, reflected in the function descriptions and code examples provided in the manual:

BLAS and Sparse BLAS (see BLAS and Sparse BLAS Routines), with correction of function descriptions
LAPACK (see LAPACK Routines: Linear Equations, LAPACK Routines: Least Squares and Eigenvalue Problems, and several LAPACK Auxiliary and Utility Routines), to reflect addition of C interface and LAPACK 3.2.2 functions
ScaLAPACK functions (see ScaLAPACK Functions), to fix some bugs and add description of three driver routines
Sparse Solver Routines, to reflect addition of a new ILP64 (64-bit integer) version of the PARDISO solver (see pardiso_64); new features of the PARDISO solver (parallel algorithm control, partial solution for sparse right-hand sides and sparse solution); new functions pardiso_getenv, pardiso_setenv, which operate with the PARDISO handle
Vector Mathematical functions (see Vector Mathematical Functions), to reflect addition of dynamic accuracy control and update information on special value behavior in the mathematical functions
Statistical functions (see Statistical Functions), to reflect addition of the VSL Summary Statistics routines
PBLAS routines (see PBLAS Routines), to reflect addition of the missing description of PBLAS Level 2 and Level 3 routines
Support Functions, to reflect change of the mkl_enable_instructions function status and addition of descriptions of new functions (see Functions Supporting the Single Dynamic Library Interface)
FFTW2 Interface to Intel MKL, to reflect extension of the list of FFTW2 to Intel MKL wrappers for multi-dimensional real-to-complex/complex-to-real FFTs
FFTW3 Interface to Intel MKL, to reflect addition of MPI FFTW wrappers (see MPI FFTW Wrappers)

For Intel MKL 10.3 Update 1,

Sparse Solvers (see Sparse Solver Routines) to reflect addition of the C interface for the direct sparse solver routines; a new code example for the pardiso_setenv function
Nonlinear Optimization Problem Solvers (see Nonlinear Optimization Problem Solvers), to reflect addition of single precision routines
minor bugs were fixed in the description of the Support functions, and the LAPACK, Sparse Solver, and Nonlinear Optimization Problem Solvers domains.
